I did my first 5K today!! I ran walked the entire thing and didn't die!!

I am 327lbs and if I can do it anyone can!! Next one in Jan...now working on improving my time!!

Had to brag...I am so excited!

YAY!!

Pookie,

Congratulations on doing the 5K. That is a tremendous accomplishment!

A thought if I may...just because you did it doesn't mean someone else can do it. Look back and remember all the well meaning people who said to you, "Well if I can lose the weight on Weight Watchers (or whatever diet)", then you can too. That wasn't true either, eh? :wink2:

Again, congratulations. You should be very proud of yourself!

I'm going to have to check and see where you live because the idea of even walking across the field to my mother-in-law's this morning is not very appealing. It's colder than naked chicken in the freezer where I'm at!

.

congrats on the 5K. I wish I could walk at all but right now my legs won't allow it. Maybe with more weight loss and my legs getting better, I will someday be able to brag too.

Pat yourself on the back...you deserve it.

congrats. you must feel on top of the world.

i left you a comment on your blog. i am in south florida too and will be doing the same walk in january!

WOW Wtg!! What an accomplishment! I want to try one, but I am afraid I wouldnt make it :w00t:

First off I would like to say:thumbup: WAY TO GO GIRL:thumbup: !!!! that is so great . I don't mean to sound stupit but how far is a 5k run? I see people saying they ran a 5k run but never knew how far it was. I was band on nov. 12th 09 I have lost from 213 to 195 so far.

You Go Girl,

I have looked at the couch to 5k on the net and have considered doing it but never thought I could run like that .....but you might just have inspired me ....I currently WALK 5km on my treadmill each day I get up to a very fast walking pace of 6km hour but I just can't make my self run I think it has a lot to do with childhood, never wanted to run then either LOLL.....

Any way great job keep up the great work.:w00t:

You can have 40 pounds off by then. I am going on a cruise 5/24. I want to be at goal by then 49 pound to go.
